Podcast #2

2007 is certainly living up to our expectations so far. We're not even out of January yet and already there have been some rather inspirational releases. Encouragingly, a brief glance at the release schedule suggests that the coming months will equally fruitful. But let's not look too far ahead just yet.

We've done our very best to compile some of our early favourites of 2007 in this, our second podcast. While some tracks come from the big releases and will be familiar to most of you, others come from more low key affairs, and one is even an unreleased demo. There are even a few older tracks thrown in for good measure.

We would like to give a special thanks to Aberdeen band Hookers Green No.1 for allowing us to use a sample from "Bloody Great Big Fucking Party" as our intro music. If you like what you hear, why not visit their MySpace page?
